Weihnachtskrammarkt Montabaur

Advent Shopping in a Historic Setting

The Weihnachtskrammarkt Montabaur is firmly anchored in the official market calendar of the city of Montabaur for 2026 and is one of the oldest and most traditional markets in the Westerwald district. The historic town center around Großer Markt, Wallstraße, and Bahnhofstraße provides the perfect backdrop for an extended stroll between the market stalls and the decorated shop windows of local businesses.

Diverse Assortment for the Advent Season

The market offers range from textiles, knitwear, hats, and scarves to leather goods, household items, and tools, as well as toys, sweets, and winter baked specialties. Artisans showcase handmade gift ideas, candles, woodwork, and Advent decorations. Those looking for Christmas gift inspiration will find it in the market alleys as well as during their regular weekly shopping.

Culinary Delights

Mulled wine and snack stands cater to your culinary needs. Bratwurst, potato pancakes, crêpes, candied almonds, and winter sweets invite you to linger. Breaks can be taken in the cafés and restaurants in the town center with coffee, cake, or a warm lunch menu.

A Westerwald Tradition

The Weihnachtskrammarkt is part of a long tradition of markets in Montabaur and is a component of the rich customs of the Westerwald district town. For many residents of Montabaur and the surrounding communities, visiting the market is a fixed part of their schedule on the last weekend of November – as a communal start to the Advent season.
